Helix C One - 1 Kanal

HELIX C ONE

The sound powerhouse – extremely powerful, fantastic sound quality

The C ONE is a 1-channel amplifier of the absolute top class and, thanks to its considerable power, gets even power-hungry subwoofers on their toes. An ultra-low-noise, low-distortion driver stage in Class A technology controls a total of 32 hand-selected power MOSFETs, which have a firm grip on every speaker with a damping factor of 1,000.

The intelligent power supply control, which keeps the supply voltage for the output transistors of the amplifier constant, also ensures stable conditions. Thus, the phenomenal performance data of the C ONE are almost independent of the operating voltage.

And for even more concentrated power, two C ONE amplifiers can be connected together to form a large power pack thanks to the TwinPower Link.

Contrary to its extreme performance, it is by no means just a pure subwoofer amplifier. Thanks to its special bandwidth of up to 80 kHz and a design that is dedicated to perfect sound down to the last detail, it is also the ideal partner for heavy-duty mid-bass drivers in audiophile system configurations.

The C ONE creates the perfect transition to the digital world with the optionally available SPDIF input module HDM 1. This receives digital audio signals with a sampling rate of up to 96 kHz loss-free via fiber optics and converts them via two BurrBrown stereo DA converters of the latest generation with 32-bit resolution into the analog level back. The C ONE is therefore absolutely future-proof and perfectly equipped for the combination with our digital signal processors.

Features

✓ Extremely powerful class AB amplifier with up to 1,100 watts RMS @ 1 ohm - ideal for the combination with all 2 x 2 ohm subwoofers in parallel operation

✓ Can also be used as a particularly broadband amplifier with exceptional sound quality - perfect for high resolution audio

✓ Ultra low-noise and low-distortion power stage driver in ClassA technology

✓ Enormous damping factor of 1,000 @ 4 ohms for maximum speaker control

✓ Optionally available HELIX Digital Input Module (HDM) to expand the amplifier with an optical digital input in SPDIF format

✓ Regulated DC/DC switching power supply with start-stop capability down to 6V supply voltage

✓ Processor-controlled monitoring of the amplifier and temperature-controlled fan control

✓ Integrated, active crossover with high pass, low pass, band pass, bass boost and phase

✓ TwinPower Link for operating two amplifiers in bridge mode

✓ The latest generation of BurrBrown DA converters with 32-bit resolution in combination with the optional HDM 1 module

✓ 24k gold plated solid power and speaker connectors

✓ Copper-plated 70μ conductor tracks for optimal current flow and SMD technology (Surface Mounted Device) on a quadruple multilayer circuit board

Special Features:

✓ start-stop capability

The power pack in the HELIX C ONE amplifier ensures the internal power supply even in the event of short-term dips down to 6 volts. This ensures that the HELIX C ONE remains fully functional even when the engine is started.

✓ High-Resolution Audio

The extremely high audio bandwidth of this amplifier enables lossless audio reproduction of high-resolution audio signals to ensure the best possible studio-quality sound.
